I just returned from this trip and I have posted a review in the hotel review section appropriately. Here is a cc.

----------------------

This is the best hotel that I have ever stayed in through priceline. This beats many of the 3 and 4 star hotels that I have stayed in the past.

At check-in, the clerk was professional and stated that I had the room prepaid with Priceline. I arrived at 5pm so there were complimentary freshly baked oatmeal/raisin cookies at the counter... (YUMMY!). There are also apples at the counter there at all times. I received room 332 which was a "regular" suite with a single queen sized bed. The room was an end room which happily surprised me, as I didn't even request it. The room is well sound-proofed as I didn't notice the takeoffs of the planes. I was never awakened by any significant noise.

There is a welcome basket that greets you in the kitchen. Starbucks coffee filters, 2 oat/granola bars, 1 16oz bottle of spring water, 1 packe of ACTII microwavable popcorn. The kitchen is very complete with dishes, glasses, strainers, colander, utensils, scissors, microwave, 2 electric burners, refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, coffee maker.

The room also had a Zenith DVD player, which I didn't expect. It also had a CD/Alarm Radio. It had two phones with one of them being a 900mhz cordless. The working table is big with two soft leather chairs (one of them has rolling wheels). There is also another chair with an ottoman. The closet was a little smaller than I expected, but in it had the standard iron and table.

The 4 feather pillows, the quilted down comforters, the 310 thread 60cotton/40poly sheets, the mattress pad was the most comfortable hotel bed that I have ever slept in. I slept very soundly and comfortably for both nights that I was there.

The bathroom was standard sized with matching tiles on the floor that matched the tiles in the kitchen. The walls of the showers were tiles, too! The bathroom was very clean and the amenities were from Bath and Bodyworks.

The place had a complimentary business center (with a color laser printer) as well as complimentary in-room wired internet access.

I did use the fitness room one day which was okay... nothing spectacular. It had 2 threadmills, 2 stairmasters and 1 exercise bike I think.

Overall, this is the best hotel that I have ever stayed in (in terms of comforts for the price). Mostly because of the bed (simply incredible)!

The other issue that came up was that fact that I checked my credit card online 3 days later and sawa that I was charged an addition 75.66$ from the hotel. I called and I asked about the charge. The lady apologized and said that it was a mistake. They should have charged that amount to the priceline credit card as I had already prepaid through priceline. hehe i guess 7.64$ is how much priceline is profiting from my stay (which includes the Priceline service fee.

I would DEFINATELY STAY here again... even if I had to book through the hotel directly!
